Business Outlook

Pros

It was a good part time and the pay was decent for the time. It wasn’t on the stressful side of retail, and I found the work to be rewarding sometimes, like when I got to know our products and could provide solid recommendations. My team was supportive as well.

Cons

None that I can think of other than annoying customers from time to time. And some that don’t understand it’s a store only for licensed professionals.

Pros

Discount on products for professional hairdressers

Cons

A woke company who doesn’t help employees/managers , is looking for cheap labor and does not support the hard working people - they look for anyone to hire but not licensed professionals who do a good job , the people they hire don’t care about work ethic - they’re just a quota of dei
